When an explicit DMA limit is described by firmware, we need to remember

Shouldn't we also stop presetting the dma mask after this?

I guess initialising the device masks here only really has any effect if drivers fail to set their own, so if we're getting stricter about that then it would make sense to stop; I'll add a couple of patches on top to clean that up.
